Bug report

I wanna say thanks for your great work for this repo.

What I expected to happen: Is it possible if the login and auth using LDAP(Active Directory)? If yes, is it any guidance?

Thanks

Hi @hans0801 ,

This package actually doesn't have anything to do with authentication. It's just a few screens that help you manage the Users, Roles and Permissions tables as created by https://github.com/spatie/laravel-permission

Backpack does ship with authentication out-of-the-box. But it's only email & password authentication. You can disable the Backpack auth entirely in your config/backpack/base.php and any other auth you want. I'm sure you can find a LDAP package for Laravel you like. Just make sure you also change the CheckIfAdmin middleware to make sure whoever is logged in is an admin 😉

Hope it helps. Cheers!
